A moving magnetic field will move around any conductor, it doesn't have to be superconducting. A better video would be nice.

  But it wouldn't lock the target in place when they stop, which is what this video demonstrates very well. The conductor would move towards the magnet and try to stick to it.

    >The conductor would move towards the magnet and try to stick to it. No, only ferromagnetic material would behave like that. Copper foil will also move in a moving magnetic field, and won't be attracted to a stationary magnet.
